This is a variation on my Blue Eternity pattern, using reddish-brown
and white acrylic. This is one of my favourite threaded-in patterns.

I tried to use fire-like shading ranging from bright yellow to dark red
in this belt, and the name Dragon's Breath just sprang to mind.

This a variation on the Eternity pattern above which results in a diagonal
Greek key pattern.

November 2002
I used earth tones with a fairly low contrast for this belt; the colours
are actually a little bit brighter than is apparent on this scan.

These 'Jerusalem Crosses' were inspired by
Kurt Laitenberger's
bands. I played around with quite a number of variations; there are more
patterns in this general shape that I'd like to try out sometime. The band
on the left is an accidental mix of 20/2 and 30/2 silk with a 7F7B turning
sequence. The band on the right is #8 acrylic crochet yarn with a somewhat
unusual turning sequence: 3F1B5F5B1F3B - essentially a 7F7B with a long
float thrown in.

Another 'Jerusalem Cross', this time using hexagonal cards and a straightforward
6F6B sequence.

Plate 177 in Collingwood shows a German or Sicilian orphrey dating to possibly
the 12th century. This orphrey has a very interesting threaded-in border
pattern, part of which I recreated here (using Fig 99 in Collingwood) in linen
thread.

Another variation on the Anglo-Saxon style, using the same wool as the
belt above.
